    People are underestimating both Khan and Peterson, giving neither of them enough credit.

    1) If you put Peterson in with Zab Judah, Judah isn't going to last the distance.

    2) Peterson is talented, young, and hungry. He will make Khan work at times.

    3) Khan will win this fight at least 8 rounds to 4. When Peterson tries to close the distance he will be eating sharp punches from Khan. They may not knock him out, but they will hurt him.

    I agree peterson is very technical boxer who can make quick adjustments. I expect khan to have a lot of problems with lamont

    I agree. I Think Peterson is gonna give him a hell of a time. I just dont know how long he can keep that pace up. But I think its gonna be much closer than people think.

    Khan should be the favorite, but surely you don't think an upset is completely out of the question here?

    Peterson is right up near the top of the division.

    It should be a good fight.. Khan and peterson have boxing skills... Khan is a bit faster and he has a great jab. I see Khan Winning a close decision.

    Peterson is not an easy fight for anyone. Did you watch the Bradley, Ortiz and Cayo fights?

    70/30 fight for Khan, not a mismatch IMO.

    I have been saying this since the possibility of this fight was talked about months ago, before Khan chose to fight McCloskey. In fact, this has been my position all along about these next two up-coming fights. Floyd Mayweather is about to watch Millions of Dollars slip-away. Peterson will upset Khan and Marquez will make a Floyd Mayweather vs Pacquiao fight LESS-ATTRACTIVE.

    Never ever heard anyone describe Judah in such a manner (Actually almost always the opposite). Lazy, sure, but not defensively porous. Certainly his defense/slickness has always been a little overrated, though. So I'm not disagreeing, just suprised by your description.

    Peterson could trouble Khan. But didn't you say the exact same thing when Khan fought Judah? Think so.

    on the contrary, he said Judah had zero chance against Khan.

    That would be the best thing to happen in boxing for a while.

    I think Khan is going to outwork him to a decision but I think it will a tough fight for him right up there with Maidana.
